Should imply my_little_pony since it's a MLP species.
Should not imply FiM because of potential OC characters that aren't supposed to have FiM tag.
For example: post #260222

Isn't diamond dog species the existed only in fim? I think that species that exist only there should imply fim tag.

I was going to say the same but OCs. What Hammie here means (I guess) is that FIM is the style/canon characters. And since OCs are not canon, they don't deserve the FIM tag.

Did I got it right?

I think that OC ponies don't deserve fim tag, since ponies, unicorns, pegasus, winged unicorns exist not only in fim. After all pony with cutie mark would fit also in another mlp generation.

But I think that it's different for diamond dogs, changelings, etc.

FiM should only be tagged on actual character from the show imo.
They may very well put the species that are currently only in FiM in a movie, or another MLP show in the future.
OCs shouldn't have a FiM tag, they should just have the MLP tag, just like OC ponies.

Well, FiM is only to be used for characters in the actual show directly, but not for OC, so I would really take out all species tags of the show FiM and place them in the MLP-Franchise. Allows for easy blacklisting while still staying on the same page with our "OC only get the MLP tag" guideline.

"Diamond Dog" predates MLP in a SciFi Novel I read a while ago.

"Diamond Dogs" is a well known song by David Bowie; the title of that novella and the name of the species are both references to the song.
